#OrangePi Now has an #OpenSource #RISC-V SBC [With M.2 Slot]

source: https://news.itsfoss.com/orange-pi-rv/

TL;DR: The #CPU is too weak for a #desktop system. Without #HDMI, there are much cheaper IoT RISC-V systems.

The RISC-V chip it uses is the same one as found on the #Milk-V Mars, with Orange Pi pointing out that it can run Linux distributions, pointing to #Debian #Linux on its download page.

With Milk-V Mars, starting #Firefox takes 20 seconds under Debian. Nobody really wants to work with this #performance. You could certainly shorten the time with a very lightweight customized Linux, but it is questionable whether these adjustments will be made.

What's better is that #PCIe is on the underside, unlike the Mars, and the #Wifi is onboard.

If you are looking for a pure IoT solution without HDMI, the Milk-V Duo S is a much cheaper hardware that runs under Linux.

PCI Express 5: Here’s everything you need to know about the new standard (Spoiler: Peripherals will be expensive for now)

Bild/Foto
The PCI Express, or PCIe, remains a crucial part of computing devices. PCIe, which stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect Express, is one of the two main interconnects that allows you to connect various peripherals including GPUs, SSDs, capture cards, and more to your computing device. The preliminary specification of PCIe 5.0 was announced in 2017, but it was formally announced in May 2019.

The short of it is that bandwidth and throughput basically doubles, and that PCIe 4 peripherals will work in PCIe 5 slots. New peripherals though will be very pricey in the short term. So advice if you’re buying a new motherboard there is no need to avoid PCIe 5 if you still want to bring over your older graphics card, etc. You may just want to wait for prices of PCIe 5 peripherals to drop a bit before buying them.
